TV Review: THE MORNING SHOW Season 2

THE MORNING SHOW Season 2 Director: Mimi LederStarring: Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Steve Carell, Karen Pittman, Desean K. Terry, Hasan Minhaj, Julianna Margulies, Will Arnett, Nestor Carbonell, Greta Lee, Ruairi O’Connor The Morning Show became a huge hit for AppleTV+ The first season ended on a cliffhanger and it’s now back for Season 2. The second season picks up eight months after the fallout of Alex and Bradley’s big announcement on The Morning Show. Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon continue to thrive in these richly complicated characters who find themselves in a very different professional headspace. Steve Carell is also backRead More →

THE MORNING SHOW Interviews – Tackling Hot Topics and Rewriting Season 2

THE MORNING SHOW Interviews – Tackling Hot Topics and Rewriting Season 2 AppleTV+ has a huge hit on the hands with The Morning Show. The series never shies away from hot topics with the pandemic, cancel culture, racism, and identity being discussed this season. I sat down with director/producer Mimi Leder and her cast Billy Crudup, Julianna Margulies, Hasan Minhaj, Nestor Carbonell, Mark Duplass, and Desean Terry about this explosive new season. We had a really great discussion about rewriting the second season after the pandemic shut down production, the therapy that comes from playing these characters, life advice for knowing your worth, and muchRead More →

Movie Review: BOMBSHELL

BOMBSHELL Director: Jay RoachStarring: Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie, John Lithgow, Connie Britton, Mark Duplass, Malcolm McDowell, Allison Janney, Kate McKinnon The women at Fox News had their own to story to tell. Their story was about their boss, Roger Ailes (Lithgow), and the history of sexual misconduct under him and fellow anchors at Fox. As Megyn Kelly (Theron) is battling presidential candidate Donald Trump about his rhetoric toward women, Gretchen Carlson (Kidman) is debating about suing Fox and/or Ailes. She’s warned about going up against someone as powerful as him, but she pulls the trigger. After she’s let go, word spreads as moreRead More →

Streaming TV Review: THE MORNING SHOW

THE MORNING SHOW Creators: Jay Carson, Kerry EhrenStarring: Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Steve Carell, Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Nestor Carbonell Mitch Kessler (Carell) and Alex Levy (Aniston) have been hosting a successful morning news show for fifteen years. Their chemistry is impeccable. That all changes one morning when Mitch is let go from the network due to sexual misconduct allegations. The shocking news rattles coworkers, and Alex is left blindsided. She wants to address the truth to their audience and speak to them as family – to speak on their level. With the shake up leaving Alex alone at the desk, she worriesRead More →

Movie Trailer: BOMBSHELL

BOMBSHELL Director: Jay RoachStarring: Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie, John Lithgow, Kate McKinnon, Alanna Ubach, Allison Janney, Connie Britton, Mark Duplass, Ashley Greene, Richard Kind You may already have strong feelings about Fox News depending on where you fall in the political landscape. What you may or may not know about is the toxic workplace that it became for many of the women who worked under Roger Ailes (Lithgow). There were many big names that came out of there like Megyn Kelly (Theron), Gretchen Carlson (Kidman), Kayla Pospisil (Robbie) and more. Bombshell tells the story of these women along with many others who finallyRead More →

Movie Review: THE LAZARUS EFFECT

THE LAZARUS EFFECT Director: David Gelb Starring: Olivia Wilde, Mark Duplass, Evan Peters, Donald Glover, Sarah Bolger I was reminded, yet again, that I prefer old school horror films. You know, the ones from the ‘60s and ‘70s that are psychological scares with practical effects. It feels rare when a recent horror flick produces some good scares with an original plot. The Lazarus Effect is one of the laziest and cheapest scary films to have hit theaters recently. Zoe (Wilde) and Frank (Duplass) are young doctors on the verge of a scientific breakthrough. They also happen to be engaged to each other but have putRead More →
